Deep Inside

It tears me up inside

All that I have to hide

Your eyes glance at everyone else

But skip right over me

My fake smile fools everyone

But the eyes staring straight at you

Are true to what they hold

The pain of my feelings

The coldness of your words

And the hate I feel for myself

Are all my grey eyes show

Safe in the darkness, alone I cry

As strong emotions surface

From deep inside

I'm hurting because of you,

Because of all I wish you knew.

All along, I've been yearning to tell you,

My love for you is way too strong.
